There are over 1 billion Facebook users, but how do you motivate them to go beyond ‘like’ and ‘share’ and support your organization in bigger, more meaningful ways? This session will discuss proven methods to grow and inspire your Facebook audience to move up the ladder to email engagement. We will explore tools—such as ActionSprout, Crowdtangle and advanced Facebook advertising—to build a low cost, high performance email list. And we’ll delve into the best practices for how to onboard and cultivate that email list, moving them to take higher level actions such as signing petitions, volunteering and donating to your cause.
